What is a good expected 60ft on a good set of street tires? 2.2 is better than anything I have ever run in my FWD Eclipse.

no idea, but i know the car is capable of much better 60ft.

a 1.9 isn't out of the question.

Hey fbdrifter, Ive got the same steering wheel as you. Where did you get your adapter. I found the steering wheel and adapter at the yard for ten bucks.

not bad, but seams low for all those mods
I ran a 9.76 all stock, no emissions(pump) but with cat, no a/c, no bolts ons. No mech secondaries.

Those rear tires are really tall, must be how you get away with the 5-6k launches.

get some 13's with short tires or drag radials, you can probably shave a couple tenths if not more.
